Fox 10 reports that McCorvey is recovering but may have permanent damage to her leg. The station interviewed her mother, Consuelo McCorvey, who says the accident may keep her daughter from reaching her dream of dancing on the school's team.

"You don't know how this is going to come out, you don't know how her leg is going to come out," Consuelo McCorvey told the station. "She could have a limp the rest of her life. If she has a limp she can't do half the things she wants to do in life, no matter where she wants to be, what she wants to do."
